This still does not eliminate the fact that each digit added increases the cracking time exponentially. In other words, use a longer password.
There's only so much entropy a human brain can memorize easily. If you try to make it easier to remember, by making it pronounceable, or even using words, that decreases entropy defeating the purpose of extending your password.
Dunno what solution there is when computers can brute force passwords longer than a human can memorize.
If this fellows customers get wind of their "trusted advisors" getting kickbacks for making sales, they'll be a lot less trusted.
If the OP wishes to compensate his engineers for their time, that's all well and good. But they need to be compensated whether they make a sale or not. Anything less is a conflict of interest for an engineer who is used to operating based on facts.
I think you dramatically overestimate how important class attendance is in High School. Out of a 50 minute class, you're lucky if 5 minutes is spent on new material. The rest of the time is simply babysitting.
Who says the Chinese hack on Google was a horrible, evil thing? Google, sure. And the US government, sure. Personally, I couldn't care less either way.
Is there a good HOWTO out there for SIP? There's lots of information out there, but none of it is nicely organized. I'm looking for a nice short overview of what I need to do to ditch my land line. Do I need anything besides a linux box and with a sound card? Can I use my POTS phone transparently if I have a voice modem? Is Asterisk something I need to run at home, or is it what SIP providers run?
Once upon a time, pretty much anything you could want to do with a Linux box was documented step, by step in a HOWTO. It's a shame these have fallen out of favor.
* Although the research suggests that kids have a negative impact on happiness, the effect is small. It is also true that the same research shows that people that are married with kids are happier than those that are single without kidsâ"something that is rarely emphasized in the write-ups of this research. Also parents overwhelmingly say they would be a parent again if they had to do it all over again. The same is not true of those without children; a much higher percentage express regret at not having had a child. Basically: the happiness data may not be telling the whole story.
* All or nearly all of the negative effect of children on happiness can be attributed lack of sleep and lack of downtime. Being a parent (especially nowadays) takes a lot of time and effort.
* So⦠why donâ(TM)t we identify some of the things that other research has shown us make parents frazzled but that donâ(TM)t actually affect the long term development or happiness of our children and letâ(TM)s, er, stop doing those things. And get a little more rest and have a little more fun.
1) Being married with kids is better than being single without kids. Being married without kids is better still, and being single with kids is the worst of all. Not a point in favor of having children.
2)Lack of sleep and downtime is an important factor in unhappiness. If you can afford to hire someone else to wake up in the middle of the night to calm your crying child, then good for you, it doesn't apply. But for everyone else, this is important.
3) How much fat is there to trim? You can't really ignore a crying child in the middle of the night. How many times a week can you afford to hire a babysitter? What are you going to do when Billy refuses to put away his toys? Are you going to discipline him? That's not restful or fun. Are you going to let it slide and clean up yourself? That's not restful or fun either.
This is simply not a practical solution. There's already not enough time in life to rest and have fun, even if you don't have kids.
i think maybe you shouldn't have left me to do my own research. want some lotion for that burn?
Yeah I probably shouldn't have, since you didn't actually find any data. And what you did find, didn't even support your argument. Feel free to try again if you like.
The real question is, why do "desktop effect" have any effect at all when you can't see the desktop? I can see how moving a 3d accelerated window would compete for resources and slow down a game. But when you can't even see or focus on the window, why should it affect your game play?
Huge desktop environments on *nix have always been crap. All you really need is a window manager and a terminal. Nothing on Windows comes close to the convenience and power of a simple wm and terminal.
Anyone who understands logarithmic expansion understands the impact of raising a child successfully will most likely far outweigh anything you will do in your lifetime
What does that even mean? The impact to who? Positive or negative impact? Having a child certainly has a powerful positive impact on that child's life. That doesn't mean it has a positive impact on yours.
This study has been retracted. You can read the erratum. I'll paste it here for convenience:
After publication of the paper âoeChildren and Life Satisfactionâ I have uncovered an important coding mistake in the dataset. Several observations of the life satisfaction measure were unintentionally assigned the wrong value in the construction of the panel.
After correcting the problem, the main results of the paper no longer hold. The effect of children on the life satisfaction of married individuals is small, often negative, and never statistically significant. I ask all readers to disregard the results of this paper and deeply apologize for this unfortunate mistake. I have asked the journal to withdraw the paper but, being too late for that, an erratum was the only alternative.
If you really need references, go through the references that Angeles claimed to disprove. They are right.
Some people are excessively self centered, having children exposes that self centered nature. For the folk that already understand that they aren't the center of the universe, parenting is a joy.
Or some people are so self centered that they believe the world really needs another little them. Those of us who aren't self-centered are happy to see our genes die with us.
evolutionarily speaking we have had a couple million years to have it hardwired into ourselves to procreate. This alone suggests that deep happiness should be found in successfully parenting progeny..
Actually, it suggests that deep happiness should be found in having lots of sex. This is one of the reasons that actually having children tends to decrease happiness.
They've actually done these studies. Child-free people are happier at all stages of life, including after the children are grown.
When you think about it, this makes sense. They've been doing what they wanted for the past 20 years, instead of what they had to do. They're better off financially for it too.
Sure, parents and grandparents will deny it. Self-deception is a common coping mechanism, and it's required for propagation of the species. You can't rely on self-reporting to measure differential happiness since people can only imagine how happy they would be if they had made another choice. You have to do long term longitudinal studies. These studies have been done and they show that parents of adult children are happier than parents of young children, but not as happy as married but child free individuals.
Reality: Kids are a lot of fun, bring joy to our lives, provide more hands and minds to get things done and pay for themselves many times over without being very expensive at all. Children our a wonderful investment in the future.
That's just wishful thinking on your part. The data is inconsistent with your position here.
If you still want to have a big family, go right ahead. We need new blood to feed into the ponzi scheme we call our economy. I'll happily take advantage of the cheap labor young people provide for as long as you're willing to raise them.
Data show that having children decreases happiness. They also eat a lot of your time (which could be better spent doing science) and they're extremely expensive (scientists don't get paid that much). Knowing this, why would anyone who respects data have children?
Sounds like a good way to alienate old fans. "What, you mean the decades of backstory I've been following is now entirely irrelevant?" I suppose it could help bring in new fans, by lowering the barrier to entry. But I don't see this offsetting the disillusioned older fans.
If you're going to reboot a universe, do it like Doctor Who did it, and not like Star Trek. Respect the decades of canon, and you have a built in fan base. Change the authors, the visual style, whatever, just don't mess with canon.

Then they can just brute force your KeePass passphrase.

Sorry but the people that did this should be dismissed
Dismissed? They should be jailed for abuse of power, harassment, etc.
Fucking pigs.

Let us know when it's released.

The picture probably is of him. There's nothing wrong with having undie pics of yourself. The problem is when you distribute them unsolicited.
Yes. Yes this is the new war on drugs. They need a new bogeyman, and this is it. Our government will be waging war against us for decades to come.

This is just bad design.
There's more to entertainment than just filling bars.
Kinda doubt that, given that the MMO with the worst community is going strongest at the moment
Isn't that consistent with a bubble? When quality is not correlated with success, there's usually something wrong with the economics of the situation.

Here is the first non-religious result in a google search for Children and happiness http://econlog.econlib.org/archives/2009/11/the_effect_of_c.html (There is a newsweek article there but it has no data).

This is a well established result in the social sciences. Do your own research.

I've read the studies, they say parents THINK they're happier when in fact they're not?
Yes, self deception is a common coping strategy.
Take one look at any proud parent beaming when their child marks another achievement
Sure, if you only look at the positive moments. The net balance swings towards the negative. Parents don't see it because of choice supportive bias.
If anyone could think those parents aren't happy, I can't imagine what those folks think would improve a parent's happiness
Some free time and a good nights sleep.
I don't think it's cromulent to say that genes "deserve" anything.
